Abstract
Disclosed is a minimum searching method for searching a minimum in N (N is a natural number) data by a computing device including at least one processor. The method for searching the minimum may include: determining a threshold; initializing Qubits to include indexes representing addresses in which the N data are recorded, respectively, and the threshold in a superposition state; returning, from a superposition-state index, superposition-state data corresponding to the superposition-state index through a quantum memory; comparing the superposition-state data with the threshold in parallel through a quantum comparator (Q-comp); and searching the minimum based on the comparison result.
